Toddler: (in an animated fashion) "Ooo Eee La Looo La!"
Me: Do you want some more?
Toddler: What? Did it sound like I said I want some more?
Toddler: Ooo Ee La Loo La!
Me: Do you want a drink?
Toddler: Seriously, did that sound like "I want a drink?"
Me: Did you want some bread?
Toddler: Bread? Really mom? That's not even close.
Toddler: (now flapping arms and enunciating as clearly as possible) "Oo Ee La Loo La!"
Me: You're all done?
Toddler: Help. Anyone around here speak my language? Help.
Toddler: How can I say this any more clearly? "Oo La Loo Le?"
Toddler: Oh, the agony of trying to communicate with this woman, I said nothing about being all done! No, no, leave me here, I know what I want and no one will help me!
Me: You aren't done? Do you want a cracker?
Toddler: Exhausting. As if trying to learn to walk and cutting teeth isn't enough. Totally exhausting.
Not really, but sure, give me a cracker. It might soothe me.
Me: Sorry, baby, I don't know what you need. But you sure are a cutie.
Toddler: Thank you, at least there are some things that we are both clear on.
